Delivered as three lectures in Vienna in 1946, just months after Frankl's liberation from Auschwitz, this previously untranslated work is in some ways even more urgent than Man's Search for Meaning — a direct address to a devastated population on the question of whether life is worth living when everything has been taken. Frankl argues not from philosophy but from lived experience of extreme suffering that meaning is always available, and that the affirmation of life despite everything is both possible and necessary. For men reckoning with depression, trauma, addiction, or the aftershock of great loss, this is a companion of extraordinary depth. Among the most concentrated arguments for the meaningfulness of human existence ever written.
